Fans can now look forward to the best games every single week, with exclusive first-pick access to the Sunday 6pm game on Sky Sports NFL, as well as the first pick for the Sunday 9pm slot.
There is even more to celebrate with this expanded schedule. Viewers will enjoy a second game at 6pm and up to two additional games at 9pm shown live concurrently. In a historic first, all London and Europe games will be broadcast live, including the highly anticipated inaugural matches in Ireland and Spain. This ensures that no matter where the action takes place, it will be right there on your screen.
The beloved NFL RedZone programme will continue to be shown live, alongside every Thursday Night, Sunday Night, and Monday Night Football. The schedule also includes the special Thanksgiving games, the Playoffs, and the grand finale, the Super Bowl.
